Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover - How We Did It

We took a classic recipe and gave it a makeover by replacing the butter in the mashed potatoes with both BREAKSTONE'S Reduced Fat or KNUDSEN Light Sour Cream and KRAFT 2% Milk Shredded Cheddar for great taste and a creamy texture. In addition, we used extra-lean ground beef instead of regular ground beef. These small changes resulted in a savings of 90 calories and 15g of fat per serving.

Substitute

Substitute 1 cup BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Low Fat Cottage Cheese for the sour cream. Blend the cottage cheese in a blender until smooth before using as directed.

I made this tonight. It was not easy, and tasted so bland. Not a whole lot of flavor at all. In my family of 5 only 1 finished her meal and that was my 10 month old and she only ate the potatoes. I was so disappointed in this meal. I bought a food processor just for this meal. What a waste!!!!

My family really loved this recipe. I slightly altered it by using low fat sour cream instead of the cottage cheese, which made the potatoes extra creamy and flavorful. I also used a veggie mixture of carrots, corn, green beans, and lima beans instead of brocoli and carrots. I would definitely recommend this dish to others.

I made this for supper tonight for my husband and me and cut the recipe down to two servings which I put into individual casseroles. I used ground turkey and did not sprinkle extra cheese on top to reduce the fat content. It came out moist, seasoned well, and the potatoes were creamy.

This was really easy to make. My whole family really enjoyed it, including my VERY picky 3 year old. This is my new shepherd's pie recipe!

I subsituted the ground beef for ground turkey and it was awesome, The turkey was much tender and it's better for you. This recipe is great.

The recipe had a delicious flavor. My boyfriend loved it. I used a mixture of frozen peppers and petite peas.
